This marks my first triathlon! I enjoyed it as much as or even more than I had anticipated. It was very nice to incorporate a bit of the swimming and biking I'm doing all the time into something competetive. I decided to do the sprint distance for my first, which was likely a smart option (.4 mile swim, 16.5 mile bike, 5k run). I would have been fine doubling the swim and the run, but doing 16.5 miles x 2 on the bike would have been painful. I've already got another one on the schedule for October 4th! Whoot whoot!
